Women need to run the Boy Scouts

Today I had my first experience with Cub Scouts. My 6 year old son recently joined and we went to day camp today. Here is how it went. Go to camp Eagle. Take the country road past the golf course, you will see the sign.
There was no freaking sign.
I should have know at that point to just turn around and call it quits.
I didn't, that was the start of hell camp.
After asking 3 different farmers who kept sending me in different directions, the 4th house a woman answered and her directions had us there in 2 minutes.
After registering my son was given a cowboy hat and we had to put a red band of paper on it with a stapler.
There were 200 kids, and one stapler on one picnic table.
"Is there only 1 stapler for all these people?" All the men looked at me like it was a problem.
We had been told we were in the cowpokes group.
They didn't know where that group was though.
After walking in circles and asking, we found them.
Waited to shoot BB guns, they hand my son BB's and tell him load the gun and shoot the target.
Like he's gonna know?
Then we shot bow and arrows, we learned how by watching the kid and dad next to us screw up, so we didn't do what they did.
Sling shots.
Yes, trying to shoot a piece of dog food into a 12 ounce cup hanging on a string with a clothes pin 40 feet away.
Oh yeah, it was windy too.
I wonder if they give badges for fucking up your kids self esteem.
We should have shot the instructor with the sling shot for being a moron.
3 legged races, roll the hula hoop, and tug of war.
I am starving, it's noon and I want my hot dog and watered down orange drink.
Reed's hungry and tired,
This started a t 8am. Nobody seems concerned about where the food is.
They blow the whistle.... I am thinking lunch.
No, go shoot the BB guns again.
Reed is crying and wants to eat.
I want to eat.
We tell some parents in our group we are walking up the road to camp to find the food.
I got the impression we weren't suppose to.
We did anyway.
As we finally found the eating building, everybody else came running.
We each got 2 hot dogs, 3 chips, jello cup and orange drink.
What happened next almost made me flip out.
One ketchup and one mustard bottle for 200 starving kids and 100 dads. Maybe 5 moms.
This is why women should be in charge of everything. After standing in line for ketchup for 5 minutes, I go to the kitchen and ask for more ketchup bottles.
None.
They have 48 ounce container and they were just going to keep refilling the bottle out of that.
I look at the guy and tell him "We are going to open it and put 10 spoons in it and use it that way." He wasn't happy with me, nor I with him, but he did it.
I will tell you if these men went to a wedding, dinner, picnic, etc and women were running it and there was only one ketchup bottle, those men would have bitched.
Oh yeah, one trash can too.
All these men were teaching these boys, the next generation, to be like this.
I wasn't. My son understands there should be more organization and a "plan". Things need to be announced and explained out loud.
Now I see why men don't ask for directions, they must have been in boy scouts.
Reed wanted to leave because it was boring.
I encouraged him to stay and climb some ropes, but he was headed for the car.
I was right behind him.
I'm not a quitter, and I teach Reed to finish things when you start...but...
I will give the Family camping a try, but if all the dads sit around waiting for someone else to build the fire....
